Wales international Catherine Richards has been called up to the Wales Women’s Guinness 2026 Six Nations squad.

Richards, who captained Gwalia Lightning in this season’s Celtic Challenge, will replace uncapped centre Savannah Picton-Powell.

Picton-Powell was one of the nine uncapped players named in the Wales squad for the Six Nations but has been ruled out with a shoulder injury.

Richards, who was part of the Wales RWC squad, made her Wales debut in the Women’s Six Nations against France in 2024.
